So, that means the clone absorbed the bloodline of the tentacles to get its regenerative power.
The powers we get from bloodlines are broadly classified into two categories: Traits and Abilities.
The traits are something passive that we get from bloodline, for example, the ears of elves, wings in some races, quick healing and list goes on.
While abilities are something active that activate consciously but for a limited time like fire breathing, etc..
The regenerative power of those tentacles was most likely just a trait...
Oh, the bloodline of the clone was very simple and it must have got something to absorb from my Green bloodline to absorb the bloodline trait of 'the Krakens', a primogeniture and the probable ancestor of all octopus-like beasts.
I looked at my palms, 'Does that mean I can do same?'
The words alone got me excited but...
It is quite impossible because the bloodline of the clone was quite simple to merge and get the Kraken bloodline.
If I try to do same then, it might conflict with my Green bloodline and ultimately destroy me.
But, they might be compatible by chance and also merge to create a more powerful bloodline.
Let's leave this matter because it has too much risk.
But, I am not letting it go.
Before that, I need to go and meet Natalia.
==================
This time I made sure to go to the city and buy a proper bouquet and a box of chocolates.
It is a 'lover's special', hehehe.
I also made sure to wear some nice clothes and comb my hair today.
And these nice boots,
Oh, I stepped on something,
It is the crepe that I bought yesterday and threw away after it didn't work.
Poor cream.
Knock! Knock! Knock!
"Natalia my darling, I am here to meet you."
The door opened and the lady came out wearing an apron but,
"mother-in-law..."
"Why you look so disappointed to see me? I am Natalia's mother so I also live with her."
She said with her typical mature tone.
No, I am not disappointed, it is just that...
The world suddenly feels so embarrassing,
I wanna escape in a hole and die after everyone forgets about me.
Why why why why why????
Did I need to wake up and be dressed like it is our anniversary to meet a girl?
She is going to die of embarrassment.
Oh, I will kill myself if she doesn't.
"Here, take some morning tea to kill what remaining sleep you have left, even if you don't need it."
"Thank you..."
Hmm, is Natalia still sleeping?
Where is that tiny twerp that was always jumping around?
I can probably use him to extract some details about Natalia.
Maybe, his name was something like Kishen.
"She went to do something early in the morning."
Oh, she is busy right now.
I will go now without asking where she is because it will be rude.
"Please may I know when she will-"
"She is on her first date with Albert, don't be wor-"
Clamp!
The chocolate and bouquet fell on the ground.
In the morning fog, only a silhouette could be seen running around city searching for a bastard he proclaimed dead.
==================
Albert, such a plain name, isn't it?
"Where are you bastard?"
But even then,
"I will kill you..."
Why does his name makes my blood boil so much?
"You are not living another day."
Why did I get that feeling when I heard those words?
A feeling that I will lose somebody.
"I will never lose to you and never lose you."
He ran without reasoning but there was only one place that could be it.
The city walls...
Her luxurious dark red dress indicated that she had been here for quite a while, and probably out the whole night.
Those luminescent earrings she was wearing was what I gave her as gift,
That smile that only I was destined to see.
Then, why is he in front of her bowing on his knee with a ring in his hand?
"Illyum!", thankfully that was the only name that came out of her mouth before my vision blacked out.
Ah, no, don't faint yet, you have to cushion your fall.
"You goddamned crazy bastard!"
Yeah, I pushed us off together from the city wall while they were drowning in their romantic scene.
Now, we are dying... or just falling.
"Leave my suit alone before we die together, bastard."
Not even in hell before you die, fucker.
